Matthew Cooke: Race-baiting 101

Nearly two years ago, I came across this brilliant piece of creative, informative, inspirational filmmaking by documentary filmmaker, Matthew Cooke. As our history with race continues to be thrust into the spotlight from the streets of Charlottesville to the sidelines of the NFL, It seems necessary to thrust messages like this one into the spotlight as well.

We need to focus on how to understand our pasts, all of our pasts, not turn away from them. We need to understand where we all came from.

This is about coming together in a new age of understanding, not allowing ourselves to continue to be separated further by the divisive, yet ignorant few.
